I was about to burn CDs for FD4 and discover that my CD drive was unavailable. Further checking revealed that there is no cdrom in /media nor in /mnt and checking /dev there is no cdrom. The CD drive was available a few weeks ago. Now not even the CD Player can find the drive, it gives Drive Error. The hardware browser doesn't find the CD Drive. Running cdrecord -scanbus gives the following: [flinn@localhost ~]$ sudo cdrecord -scanbus Password: Cdrecord-Clone 2.01-dvd (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jörg Schilling Note: This version is an unofficial (modified) version with DVD support Note: and therefore may have bugs that are not present in the original.

SCSI unsupported with '/dev/hd*'. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'. Do I have to create a device in /dev ? Any help would be appreciated.
